On review of submissions pursuant to section 500.11 of the Rules, order affirmed, with costs, and certified question answered in the affirmative. Under the circumstances of this case, a valid supplemental needs trust was never effected. Claimants did not argue before Supreme Court that the trust was not a lifetime trust governed by EPTL 7-1.17 and EPTL 7-1.18. That argument is, therefore, unpreserved for our review. Chief Judge DiFiore and Judges Rivera, Stein, Fahey, Garcia and Wilson concur.
Decided June 1, 2017
